My able-bodied assistants, Lucy and Arlo, who give me great pleasure when they're not searching the MLS.

So here's the low down. I am the Number One Producer for the Claremont office of Prudential California Realty. Truth be told, I have been the Top Producer in my office for the last 7 years. And for those global thinkers out there, I'm in the top 2% of Prudential nationally. 

In a previous life, I was a copywriter for advertising and marketing. You might have seen some of my TV spots for the original Saturn campaign. At the same time, I've been a real estate investor for about 20 some years, and have owned property in Berkeley, Oakland, Alameda and San Francisco. 

Anyway, somewhere along that road, I must have learned something about how to bring out the best in whoever I'm representing. 

For Buyers, that often means helping them see through the clutter and educating them on what's a good deal...and what isn't. It can mean helping them see how they could inexpensively make a property better. Or is can even mean "packaging" them so they can win in multiple offers. 

And for Sellers? My listing typically sell well above those of the average agent (it's called list to sale price ratio). And even in this market, 100% of my listings have sold this past year, more than half with multiple offers. Luck? Maybe, just maybe, it has something to do with the way I market and advertise, which is a little different than the rest of the corral. 

In any case, enough to separate a cowgirl from the rest of the boys. 

 


I'm not a cowgirl, but I play one in my dreams. I just tend to think outside the corral as they say.

And for Buyers? Well, in the same way I package houses or properties for sale, I package Buyers. So they can be successful in the hotly competitive East Bay real estate market. In fact, I have a 90 percent success rate in multiple offer situations versus an area average of 20 percent for other real estate agents.

Oh yes, and for those global thinkers out there, I'm in the top 5% nationally of Prudential Real Estate--and a member of the Director's Club and the Leading Edge of Prudential.

Real Estate Tips
Real Estate Contracts >Contingency Contracts

Buyers walk into your home in your area and fall in love with it. There is one problem--they will have to sell their home before they can buy yours. Their offer contains a contingency clause which makes the purchase dependent upon selling their present home. Should you accept such an offer?

Your decision should be based on several factors. Is their home being professionally marketed at this time, or are they trying to sell it themselves (a risky proposition!)? How long has it been on the market? Is it overpriced? If the house doesn't sell, can the buyers take out a bridge loan or make other arrangements to get to the closing table? How important is timing for you? Will the buyers agree to let you continue marketing your home and accept a non-contingent contract (and void theirs) if their house does not sell? Contingent contracts often work out well, but you need the help of a professional to weigh the pros and cons.
